    1st - I’m betting stepson and fiancée already stole the jewelry, when they found it in the closet and stepson was certain to get permission, which is why he asked. They never had any intention of returning it. I’m glad OP pressed charges.
    2nd - OP’s sister is a thief. Opening another’s mail is illegal. It was not the sister’s place to “distribute” the jewelry.

    Story 1: I would have called the Police immediately I knew the jewellery was missing and let them sort it. (I would also have the stuff in a safety deposit box, not a cupboard at home.)
    Story 2: I would have told the sister to return the jewellery or I would report it as stolen to the insurance company. Their investigators are like pit-bulls; all sweet and nice until you do something wrong.
    Story 3: The purpose of the 'baby dolls' is to teach pupils responsibility and that having a baby is hard work and a child is not an animated toy.

    That baby assignment one....I would have argued that one to an A+! OP provided that class with THE MOST important, albeit unexpected lesson they could ever learn- finding a SAFE and trustworthy babysitter! Very few, if any of these kids will be able to actually be stay at home parents. The amount of faith you have to place in people to tend to be able other equally important responsibilities in almost unfathomable. Poor OP learned a really hard and eye opening lesson, one that the rest of the class could also benefit from.

    • @dragonleheart2137
      @dragonleheart2137 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I agree with most of your points with the exception of the A+. If you have a real baby part of being a responsible parent is making sure the people watching your children are responsible. Handing your child off to a known alcoholic on their way to an expected drinking session should negatively impact OP’s grade because if the baby was real it would have been dead at least 10 times over. During the length of a football game the “babysitters” could have been responsible for the death of 10 babies. I was a student like OP and also would have been crushed by what happened but believe the final grade was fair and possibly opened OP’s eyes before a tragedy occurred to OP’s future living child or pet.
      I am also a retired mental health and substance abuse counselor who has seen the results of this happening with real children. Sometimes the child dies and everyone starts attempting to pick up the pieces. Sometimes the child lived on requiring a lifetime of special care. I “got retired” by someone driving under the influence who did not realize how much of a danger they posed. She managed to slam hard enough into the back of my stopped vehicle to shove me 20 feet forward into the rear end of a minivan and reduced the length of her Honda by half with her young son in the car (by the grace of God or whatever higher power you may or may not believe in he was safe). While we may hyper focus on the grade OP received the real world implications and the lesson of how to protect any future children OP may have is worth more than a 4.0 GPA.

      @mwills24 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      See, my school had the robotic babies, but we had to take them for either two weeks or a month depending what class you were in. We were given about a month warning so we could clear our schedules and find sitters and it was 80% of our midterm grade/final for the quarter (as the class had been focused on child development for that quarter). We had to record times and responses to the baby crying on top of trying to “calm” the baby. A couple of us set up times to trade off baby sitting for events, which worked out pretty well.

    First story: pretty sure the mom told the stepson he could take the jewelry and that it’d be alright. Whether or not she expected him to be dumb enough to not return it when found out is up in the air. The fact that the whole family don’t see a problem with him stealing it is a flag so red he should start divorce proceedings immediately with the theft and support of the thief as the cause.

    Story 3: How is the OP still alive based on how irresponsible her mum and stepdad are. My class in year 12 for childcare did this type of assignment and it's normal for that kind of class to scare us out of being teen mums. Getting graded on it seems like overkill.

    The assignment with the doll is to help the students learn just how much it takes to do the care and feeding of a baby. In the real world, if you have a child and are the only caregiver for the child, it does not matter if you have other things in your life (just like marching band or football practice), you cannot just leave your baby alone for a few hours while you are away attending to your other obligations. I can imagine that it seems very stressful to the students as they do this assignment but I think that it's a great way to experience life. Babies are so adorable when you hold them for a few minutes and then hand them back to the parents. It is quite a different experience when they are really yours and there is no one to give them back to.

    2nd story-Well never trust your sister again with things like this. You had no obligation to gift your jewelry to your nephews. It's like they say though...no good deed goes unpunished. The package wasn't addressed to your sister so she was wrong in the first place for even opening it up. She basically stole from you and your niece, and there's nothing acceptable about that.
    3rd story-I do think it's messed up that the school would punish the student's grade when it was clear they were not able to watch the "baby" when taking care of another student event. I'm glad OP got the F moved to a C but I can understand why they are still resentful and would never consider leaving a real baby with mom when she flubbed up so badly on a fake one.

With teacher approval, I was able to give my mom the key that you put in its back to show you were giving care for the time during the concert. My friend had one too, so my mom was on double babysitting duty that night. I thought I had a fluke as it only cried one time during the night.

What's "fair" for you to do with your own property is totally up to you. No one else can decide that for you. I have nothing particularly against my other nieces and nephews. A couple of which I have never even met or spoken to. I just haven't heard from any of them in well over a decade. Whereas the youngest calls & texts with me often.

    Not sure about the op in story 3, but when I was in school that class was optional. It is to simulate how hard it is to be a teen mom. They even expressed you shouldn't let others take the baby. Baby sitting is very different from having your own child. They were very clear on the rules and explained that just like if you got pregnant as a teen ( it would make you have a very hard time doing anything for fun or do extra circular activities). Those things even have sensors that say how long it takes for you to tend to it. She should feel lucky that she only had it for 1 weekend, cause when I took it you had the baby for a full 2 weeks and had to take it to all your classes and every where you went.

I passed the robot baby part but one of my friends stole my egg baby and it broke on the ground. I genuinely cried over it and to this day, at 21, I'm still bitter and lowkey kinda heart broken because once I drew a face on that egg I got attached to it 😔
    Edit: No because I had a similar issue with my mom during the robot baby time. I got a 99/100 because I asked her to do one (1) thing and she said she would but never did (I needed to shower and literally all she would have had to do was change its diaper or "feed" it) and I know cause I got out of the shower and heard it _screaming_ downstairs. She had the nerve to ask why I didn't get 100/100 😒 unfortunately even your own family can do you dirty sometimes 🙄 unlike Op though I just straight up swore to never have kids in general cause my anxiety over it skyrocketed after that

      My uncle wanted to sabotage the whole egg thing. I was not happy about it. As dumb as it was, it was kind of fun and I took it seriously as it was part of my grade.

    Mailed Jewelry. Your relatives are saying that you should have spread the jewelry among all the neices and nephews. They are saying this because they know they are wrong and are trying to gaslight you. In the future if you mail/ship something, make sure it has to be personally delivered/accepted.

    With the baby assignment I feel it was still a learning curve. It taught her that not everyone even "family" cannot be trusted to watch your child. And better for her to learn with a fake baby then a real one. As perants we have jobs and other commitments so we need sitters. So she still learned a valuable lesson.

    Story 2: sister would henceforth and forevermore be referred to as “the thief” whenever talking to or referring to her, and a point would always be made to include saying things like “I’d send it to you, but the thief might steal it”. Do you still have the X um you used to have, or do the thief steal it?

    Mr. Reddito that is the point of the project. It is to teach teenagers about the responsibilities and issues that comes with having a child. It’s a Baby Think It Over. We had them in HS. I can say that most of my graduating class didn’t have children until after college due to it. My teacher was also crazy about it. She would set the babies to have developmental disorders and you could even end up with multiples. We had them. Very interesting program but the teen pregnancy rate did drop at my HS.

    The assignment that Op had for the baby doll is a great one. It may help people realize that they aren't ready for parenthood. OP was responsible in that like most parents she knew she needed to find a babysitter. She asked her mom and her mom said sure that she understood everything and knew how to do everything. If she didn't want to watch the doll, she shouldn't have to agree, and Op would have been responsible for coming up with someone else to watch the doll or to miss the band performance like all other parents have to make those decisions.

  • @lauracottom7425

    Last story they are teaching responsibility. You get a responsible babysitter. It is supposed to show kids that they don’t want to have kids. If you have things to do then you take the “child “ with you or get a responsible person to take care of it.

    The baby assignment one could have argued their grade up to an A. The timestamps proved that the incidents happened when she was in marching band, which is a school program She had proof that she left the doll with her parents whom she had trusted during that time. any good teacher would have taken the effects of the student's other classes and school activities into account in such a situation, exempted those time periods where the baby was being babysat, and graded based on what the printout said happened in the time OP wasn't doing marching band. If OP took near perfect care of the doll during the times she had it in her possession, then her grade should reflect THAT, not reflect what other people not even in the class does.

  • @StephanieLea137
    @StephanieLea137 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The literal point of the baby assignment is to show the students how difficult it is to be raising a child a child and still be able to do all of the extra things that they want to do and also to show them that they need to find reliable childcare child care for when they are not able to take care of the child themselves. Agree that it's weird bc those robots are creepy 😳

    About the fake baby. This was an assignment in responsibility and was supposed to be equivalent to real life. In real life if you need to do something and you have a baby, you get a reliable baby sitter. She informed her mother of this. Her mother was an irresponsible baby sitter and just did not care. Had the op realized earlier what a loser her mom was she could have made different arrangements. She was not set up to fail. Her error is actually trusting that lowlife mom of hers who is obviously entitled.

    When I had friends do that baby assignment in high school it was in pairs for this exact situation, and also to represent a couple even if both partners were of the same sex. That way you had to work with your partner and plan out your schedules and who would have the baby during each point in the day. From what I remember they had to keep track of all that as well.

    If I was OP, the police would have been at the wedding to get my daughter’s property back. Something that valuable should not be in a closet - it should be in a bank deposit box.
    Baby assignment in high school: OP had a duty to find a responsible babysitter if she had obligations which conflicted with her assignment. She found an irresponsible sitter instead. She KNEW her parents had a drinking problem. The teacher was very generous to meet her halfway.
    What if that had been a real baby? Would it have survived the “babysitters?” She messed up and her bad judgment caused her GPA disaster.

    • @wplains

      Most people have no idea but second hand jewelry has almost no value unless you can produce a certificate of origin from the place you brought it from. This is because no reputable jeweler will buy anything not certified for fear they may be buying stolen goods. Of course, you can pawn them but then you’ll only get a fraction of the value they were bought for.

  • @tcato7844

    That whole point of the lesson on what to be explained of being a parent. The things and choices you will go through . And the sacrifices you must make to make sure that your child grows up. Being a parent is not easy and sometimes not fun. If that was a real baby things for the op would not end up with a feeling great but a lot worse.

    Reddit boy: the assignment is to show what it is like to have a real child, to be a real parent. It's to show the students you have to make tough choices as a parent. Like do you let your alcoholic mother watch your baby while you "go to work" or marching band as the case may be.

    honestly with story 3, i respect that the teacher recognised OP did everything right and it was OP's stupid useless mother that tanked their grade. I stand by those insults, because nothing OP does after that can raise their grade and the teacher was generous with changing OP's grade to a C. Not to mention the step father trying to gaslight OP and the mom still shirking responsibility after that.
    And to talk about your comments, the point is to teach responsibility. I do see your point about after school practices and events like games needing to take priority, but that's a failure on the teacher's part. They should've set up a "daycare" or something to help with that, but this was also an amazing lesson in who to trust with future children because if the people you care about have the time to help your grade and dont, how are you going to be able to trust them with a living breathing child?!
    It's still kind of a weird assignment, though. why do some classes still use the baby thing to simulate parenting especially when you're talking about teenagers?
